Microalgae Metabolomics Service

Microalgae Metabolomics Solutions:

• Microalgal metabolites for biofuel development: Microalgal metabolites can be used to produce biofuels such as ethanol, hydrogen and biodiesel. Metabolomics based on GC-MS and LC-MS to analyze the metabolic pathways of microalgal metabolites (e.g. alcohols, lipids, hydrogen, ethylene, etc.) provides new directions to alleviate the energy crisis and environmental crisis caused by fossil fuels.
• Biomedical development: Research has revealed that some microalgae and yeast can produce the antiviral compound astaxanthin, which has anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and immune system enhancing effects. Analysis of various nutrients and various bioactive substances in microalgae, such as carotenoids, polysaccharides, vitamins, minerals and polyunsaturated fatty acids, can help in disease treatment and development of new drugs.
• Cosmetic development: Analysis of microalgae metabolites and bioactive molecules (e.g. polysaccharides, vitamins, amino acids, etc.) helps develop functional products for treating skin burns, preventing skin aging and maintaining skin water balance.
• Environmental management: Analysis of the possible relationship between metabolic regulation of microalgae and nutrient degradation, providing a theoretical basis for research on algae purification of wastewater.
• Environmental adaptation mechanism research: Analyze changes in metabolic levels of microalgae under different stressful environments, screen key markers, and promote research on the molecular mechanisms of microalgal response and adaptation.
• Microalgae culture research: optimize microalgae culture conditions through metabolomics technology, and establish efficient and low-cost microalgae culture technology.
